Hangin' with Hevesi (Updated)

State Comptroller Alan Hevesi, he of the Driving Miss Carol scandal, has his election night headquarters across Manhattan from other Democrats, at the Madison Towers Hotel at 38th and Madison.
Right now, our Karla Schuster is there, along with about 25 other members of the media and the comptroller's staff, among them spokesman Dave Neustadt, aka 'Neustadt.' They are hanging out in the sparsely-decorated Leonardo Room.
"There’s no one here," Karla reports. "It's a small room, no balloons, no nothing. There's just a podium that says 'Hevesi' and a bunch of signs taped up. No supporters."
Nor is Alan Hevesi in the house. But we are told Hevesi will speak, win or lose tonight, and more than likely, will apologize again, for some kind of -- in his own words -- "incredibly moronic" behavior or another.
Update: Here is a quote from Neustadt, who tells us that Hevesi is apparently enroute from Forest Hills.
"The important thing today is what the voters did, not how many people show up at this party. We're hopeful the voters are looking at the whole man, his whole records, and not just one thing. If they do that, we are very optimistic."
